Squeak Monster has great taste

In the beautiful city of Berkeley, California, Xena the Warrior Princess (aka Squeak Monster) contemplates a copy of Moon Handbooks Pittsburgh. Now that’s what I call a feline with quality taste in literature!

In other news, Moon Handbooks Pittsburgh finally got its first Amazon.com comment, and boy is it a doozy! Five stars out of five! Thanks G. Haines “Kaw”! Take a look:

“Once you open this guide book be prepared to read most of the darned thing. The layout, graphics, and well-written text make it a notch above most other travel guides. The sections on what to do (given little time, at a given time of the year, with certain family members) is well thought [out] and very useful. Finally, there are many food and entertainment recommendations that are worth exploring, even if you already live in the area.”
